Walk the little streets of the Island, admire the old palaces and rest under one of the big trees. Tourists shops abound and sell the usual stuff. Chinese tourists buy a lot of dried seafood, a specialty of Gulangyu. We were there on a Saturday. It was very crowded. But the tourists walk the same streets - where they find shops - quit the beaten paths and choose other itineraries. There are stone maps of the Island at many corners.
